Usefulness of Transesophageal Echocardiography for Predicting Covert Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source

Background: Covert paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (CPAF) is a major cause of embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS). However, detecting PAF during hospitalization in these patients is difficult. Objectives: This study aimed to determine whether findings of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE...
